I am a vegan. I feel that exposing a diversity of vegans and their motivations is an important step toward convincing many people that veganism is a viable, sustainable choice – not a wacky fringe lifestyle or a fad diet. Good luck with the project.

Eric Prescott replied on Apr 16, 2008Hi, Claire. That is my reasoning as well. Most of us are just as “normal” as the next person. We’ve just realized that unnecessarily consuming animals is inconsistent with our feelings about them. Thanks for your support.

Sendhil Revuluri replied on May 3, 2008Great project! Good luck! I hope you will continue seeking funding from film/arts support organizations as well as the vegan/AR community. (By the way, I learned about your project on SuperVegan.)

Laurel replied on May 5, 2008Since this isn’t donated right now but at a possible later date… I can’t be sure I’ll have $50 to donate later. But $25 should be alright. When this comes through, I’ll donate more if I can. :)
Good idea, spreading the word on VB! :)

Susan Cho replied on Jun 6, 2008Hi Eric, I’ve posted this at ARCO & ARCO’s Abolitionists. Please let me know if you’re not OK with that, or if you want the posts done a certain way. I just posted all of the text, with the link.
(why does this site take such a loooong time to load?)

Clare Ondrey replied on Jul 2, 2008Eric and other members –
I agree completely with Claire’s earlier comment about veganism not being a ‘wacky fringe lifestyle or a fad diet,’ especially when people like Oprah start promoting “animal free” cleansing diets as part of her weight loss plan.If anyone has any vegan recipes/family recipes that they’d like to contribute to a cookbook (get more vegan recipes out there!) I have a campaign going on here as well. Search ‘cookbook’ to find it.

bea elliott replied on Jul 13, 2008I hope you reach your goal ($)….. There’s nothing more critical than illustrating to main-stream public perceptions that veganism is indeed a most sound option to restore the health of the planet, our bodies and of course – to be consistent with our ethics towards animals.
And if it’s okay…. To get the word out – I will post this in as many forums as I can. Good luck in your worthy efforts!

Eric Prescott replied on Jul 17, 2008FYI, a $5,000 check was sent privately. I will update the campaign to reflect this donation as soon as it is received. Only about $4,000 to go!

Marion Abels replied on Aug 14, 2008Hello Eric! Great project, I love it! I have a small problem though….. I live in Germany and pledged some money, but you can only choose from USA, Canada, or UK, for your credit card address. So, is that a problem? Did my pledge go through now anyways? Behind my zipcode I put Germany in parenthesis. So I hope it works!! Will love to have helped! :) Go vegan!!!
